2. Petunia

Petunias are very popular due to their long blooming period and rich color palette. The best soil for petunias is a light, nutrient-rich soil like Dolce Vital All-Purpose Flower Soil. If you want more flowers, use seedling fertilizer in the early growth stages.

3. Begonia

Begonias are shade-loving plants, making them perfect for less sunny balconies. The soil for begonias should be light and well-draining. Sunin All-Purpose Flower Soil is an excellent choice as it provides the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.

4. Trailing Begonia (Surfinia)

Trailing begonias, or Surfinia, are related to petunias but have longer stems and more abundant flowering. When purchasing soil, look for products like Dolce Vital Flower Soil, which is specially designed for hanging plants.

5. Violet (Viola)

Violets bring the first colors to your balcony at the end of winter and in the spring. The soil for violets should be light and rich in nutrients. Sunin Flower Soil is an excellent choice, providing the ideal environment for violets.

6. Cyclamen

Cyclamens bloom in winter and spring, making them perfect for the colder months. Their soil should be light and have good drainage. Dolce Vital Flower Soil is the ideal choice for cyclamens.
